Whether you\u2019re sharing valuable content to your followers, responding to customer feedback or simply informing some subset of Facebook\u2019s 2 billion users that your boutique bakery will be closing early on Thursday, Pages are one of the most important places for your business to be online. What many people don\u2019t know is that Facebook \u2018ranks\u2019 pages in a similar fashion to how search engines such as Google rank websites. If your page isn\u2019t showing the right keywords, doesn\u2019t have complete information in the detail sections, or doesn\u2019t provide a link to your website, then Facebook will not rank your page highly in its search. Below are some improvements you can make to your business page to ensure you have the best chance of ranking highly on the social network.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Set your Page as a &#8216;business&#8217;<\/strong><br \/>\nIt makes sense that your business\u2019 Facebook page should be categorised as a \u2018business\u2019. However, some page owners simply rename an old page they own and use it as their new business page. While this isn\u2019t a terrible idea, it\u2019s important to ensure the page\u2019s category matches what the page will now be used for.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Use the right Page template<\/strong><br \/>\nDid you know there are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/help\/393123551046542\">multiple page templates<\/a> you can apply to your Facebook page? These templates include Services, Venues, Business, Nonprofit, Politicians, Restaurants &amp; Cafes, Shopping, Video Creator, and Standard. You\u2019re spoiled for choice \u2013 but it\u2019s the choice you have to get right. Different templates will provide different sections you can fill out. For example, the Business template allows you to add opening hours that will display at the top of the page, as well as an indicator of where the best parking is. Ensure you are using the template that best aligns with your page.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Verify your Page<\/strong><br \/>\nSome Pages and profiles have been verified by Facebook to let users know that they are authentic. A blue \u2018tick\u2019 next to a profile or Page means that Facebook has confirmed that this is the authentic Page or profile for a public figure, media company or brand. If you see a grey badge on a Page, it means that Facebook has confirmed that it is the authentic Page for a particular business or organisation.<\/p>\n<p>Verifying your business page will boost your ranking within Facebook\u2019s search as they hold a higher value on verified businesses than those who have not confirmed their authenticity. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/help\/100168986860974\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-cke-saved-href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/help\/100168986860974\/\">Click here<\/a> for instructions on how you can verify your business page.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Add important information in key sections<\/strong><br \/>\nFacebook&#8217;s search tool works by matching search terms with keywords found in a Page&#8217;s description and information sections. It&#8217;s for this reason that it\u2019s so important for you to fill out the \u2018About\u2019 and \u2018Details\u2019 section of your page with relevant keywords that will match what your customers might search for.<\/p>\n<p>When a Page is listed in Facebook\u2019s search results, only the first 18 words of the Page\u2019s description are displayed. Ensure your wording is clear and to the point so potential customers don\u2019t scroll past your page.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How To Improve Your Facebook Business Page Facebook business pages are the place to develop relationships between your brand and your customers.
